Pereira: "Inter, everyone’s dream in S. America"

MILAN – Alvaro Pereira landed at Milano Malpensa airport a few minutes ago along
with Nerazzurri technical director Marco Branca. He was immediately
surrounded by a host of journalists who wanted to meet him and
introduce him to their readers.

The Uruguayan left-sider spoke of his joy at being in Italy: “Inter
is a dream: you just cannot imagine how much this club is loved and
supported abroad. Inter is every player’s dream and even more so in
South America. I’m happy. The thought of playing for Inter is simply
amazing. I can’t wait to get the medical over so I can join the
squad.”

It was pointed out to Pereira that his name is Alvaro just like a
certain Mr Recoba: “I have always watched Alvaro Recoba
playing,” he said smiling,”I’ve always followed his career.”

No sooner had he arrived than he made his intentions clear: “Let’s
hope we can win a lot of trophies so we can make the Inter fans
happy. I’ll team up with Gargano and Guarin, fortunately I have these
friends here who will help me settle in with the rest of the squad
quickly. Where do I prefer to play? What’s important now is being at
Inter and meeting my team-mates. What have Guarin and Gargano told
me? That Inter is a fantastic club.”
